About this lesson

Not every founder starts with a market opportunity. Some start with a belief. After spending 17 years in education, Shweta Trivedi felt that schools were doing a great job teaching subjects, but not enough to help children understand the values that shape a society. That belief eventually became Giiggle Town. Inspired by a family legacy rooted in service, including a grandfather associated with Subhash Chandra Bose, she set out to build an institution where learning goes beyond textbooks. Through #YourFirstStory, Shweta Trivedi is proving that character is the ultimate legacy worth building. ABOUT SHRADHA SHARMA: Shradha Sharma is the Founder & CEO of YourStory. She started YourStory in 2008 to tell stories of entrepreneurs - something that mainstream media was not ready to do in 2008. Since then, Shradha has scaled YourStory to become one of India’s leading digital media platforms covering every aspect of India’s new economy. She was featured on Fortune’s list of the best 40 under 40 entrepreneurs in India for three years in a row. In 2018, she won the Forbes Power Trailblazers award and was twice featured on LinkedIn’s list of powerful influencers, along with Prime Minister Narendra Modi and actor Priyanka Chopra.
